Epsom Crime Rate November 2025 | Monthly Statistics

In November 2025, Epsom recorded 303 crimes across its population of 36,950 residents, equating to a crime rate of 8.2 per 1,000 people—12.3% above the UK average of 7.3. This figure, while elevated, reflects the area's built-up character and the seasonal dynamics of late autumn. Violence and sexual offences (97 incidents, 32% of total) remained the most common category, consistent with Epsom's role as a commuter town with a mix of residential and commercial areas. Anti-social behaviour (37 incidents) and public order offences (31 incidents) also contributed significantly, with the latter 70% above the UK average—a trend likely tied to Bonfire Night events and the reduced visibility of evening hours. Shoplifting (29 incidents) and vehicle crime (24 incidents) further highlighted vulnerabilities in retail and parking areas, which are common in Epsom's urban fabric. The month's context—marked by Black Friday shopping and the approach of winter—may have intensified pressures on public spaces, though direct links to specific incidents remain speculative. These patterns underscore the need for continued monitoring of seasonal fluctuations and localized hotspots.

November 2025 saw sharp increases in possession of weapons (+300%), theft from the person (+125%), and vehicle crime (+118.2%) compared to October, with vehicle crime reaching 24 incidents—75% above the UK average. Conversely, bicycle theft fell by 83.3% to just one report, a stark contrast to the previous month's six. The crime mix also shifted, with public order offences (31 incidents) surging 70% above the UK average, likely influenced by Bonfire Night events and the darker evenings typical of the season. Anti-social behaviour. to 37 incidents, remains a persistent concern. These fluctuations suggest seasonal pressures and localized factors, such as increased foot traffic during Black Friday, may be driving some trends.

Epsom's crime rate in November 2025 rose to 8.2 per 1,000 residents, a 2.8% increase from the previous month's 8.0. This translates to approximately 10 crimes reported each day, a figure that may resonate with local residents navigating daily routines. Over the course of the month, one reported crime occurred for roughly every 122 residents, a monthly exposure rate that contextualises the scale of incidents relative to the area's population of 36,950. While this rate is higher than the UK average, the daily breakdown highlights the frequency of incidents in a built-up area with a mix of urban and suburban characteristics. The population-scaled perspective underscores that Epsom's crime rate, though elevated, remains within a range that reflects its density and the seasonal factors influencing activity, such as the timing of Bonfire Night and Black Friday shopping.
